Qantas Club Perth Domestic Terminal Nov 1

The travel centre for the mining boom.

Many mining executives in suites and operational staff in fluorescent jacket enjoying cups of made to order java from the barista. What a great way to begin a flight to work around or outside the State.

Many FIFO (fly in fly out) workers enjoying the facilities before going to work.

Had to get off the morning QF 654 flight to Sydney due to toilet trouble on the plane.

While waiting for QF654 the afternoon flight to Sydney required spot of lunch. It was Aerodrome cafe or Qantas Club.

Lunch on  Thursday in Q club Perth - honey ham, roast beef and aubergines with crackers. Light and healthy?

An Irish favourite? Calcannon Pie with mashed potato. A welcome meal if you have swum 1.7km in the pool in preparation for a 1/2 triathlon. Either in Albany or Busselton. The swim leg is 1.9 km so potatoes and mince is an option for non vegans.

Capsicum soup with beans.Spicy, light and healthy!



More Calcannon pie with mash and salad. Just can't satisfy your hunger from the swim? Maybe should have had quinoa for breakfast. A South American staple grown by the Incas with 14% protein content. By now most of the FIFO guys have left.


Time to get the flight to Sydney. Might have to start with a snooze.

Check out the 1/2 triathlon sites in WA.

1. Albany http://www.albanyhalf.com.au/ this is sponsored by Trek & you might even win a bicycle.

2. Busselton  http://www.busseltonhalf.com/ and there are no more individual entries left only teams. Very popular. Might see you there.
